Have this listed in other places, figured I'd post it here since I still have the membership. Been struggling to find work so would really like to let this go :')

Up for sale is a rare 5-string headless Ibanez Axstar Bass. Really good condition considering its age, pretty much just cosmetic blemishes here and there and no functional issues. Neck and tuners are in excellent shape and the action is super smooth. Knobs control volume, pickup balance, and Q control for tone/EQ (which I had way too much fun using for envelope filter sweeps a la volume swells).

Worth noting: the string spacing is a little tight! If you have played the old 5 string Rickenbackers, it should feel pretty familiar. Recently replaced the 9v and the strings on it are fairly new. Comes with the original case. Price includes shipping + insurance. Feel free to ask any questions.

I had a 4 string Axstar growing up (35 years ago) that I sold 15 years ago. Still miss that thing! This should make someone really happy!
